Amine. In chemistry, amines (/ ə ˈ m iː n, ˈ æ m iː n /, [1] [2] UK also / ˈ eɪ m iː n / [3]) are compounds and functional groups that contain a basic nitrogen atom with a lone pair.Formally, amines are derivatives of ammonia (NH 3), wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by a substituent such as an alkyl or aryl group [4] (these may respectively be called alkylamines ...
Aliphatic compounds can be saturated, joined by single bonds (), or unsaturated, with double bonds or triple bonds ().If other elements (heteroatoms) are bound to the carbon chain, the most common being oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and chlorine, it is no longer a hydrocarbon, and therefore no longer an aliphatic compound.
Tertiary aliphatic nitro compounds, however, are converted in good yield to the amine using the Béchamp reduction. [6] The reduction proceeds in a multistep manner. First, the nitro group is reduced to nitroso, which undergoes hydrogenation to a hydroxylamino group prior to further reduction to the amine. [7] Proposed mechanism of the Bechamp ...
Aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and aromatic amines are all employed as epoxy hardeners. Amine type hardeners will alter both the processing properties (viscosity, reactivity) and the final properties (mechanical, temperature and heat resistance) of the cured copolymer network. Thus amine structure is normally selected according to the application.
The intermediate imine can be isolated or reacted in-situ with a suitable reducing agent (e.g., sodium borohydride) to produce the amine product. [2] Intramolecular reductive amination can also occur to afford a cyclic amine product if the amine and carbonyl are on the same molecule of starting material. [4]
1-Aminopentane is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 4 NH 2.It is used as a solvent, as a raw material in the manufacture of a variety of other compounds, including dyes, emulsifiers, and pharmaceutical products, [1] and as a flavoring agent.
As it is an aromatic amine, its rate of cure is much slower than aliphatic amines and thus used with epoxy resin systems to lengthen the working time or potlife. [16] These are then used in adhesives, sealants, and paints or coatings. [17] It is often used with epoxy resins for its excellent mechanical properties. [18]
